Abstract
To evaluate the impact of admission glycaemia on short-term and long-term prognosis in diabetic and non-diabetic patients admitted for acute coronary syndromes (ACS), and to identify the independent predictors of post-ACS mortality in this population. This study included 1149 consecutive patients admitted to a single coronary care unit for ACS between May 2004 and December 2006. Our population was divided into four groups according to the quartiles of glycaemia at admission [Q1 <5.77 mmol/l, Q2 (5.77-7.0) mmol/l, Q3 (7.0-9.22) mmol/l and Q4 > or =9.22 mmol/l]. Diabetic (n = 396) and non-diabetic (n = 753) subgroups were then separately analysed. Hyperglycaemia at admission was associated with worse cardiovascular risk profile, high levels of necrosis and inflammation biomarkers and low left ventricle ejection fraction. Considering overall population, in-hospital, 30-day and 3-year mortalities were higher in more elevated glycaemia quartiles. In diabetic patients, there were no significant differences in mortality among glycaemia quartiles; however, in non-diabetic group higher admission glucose levels were associated with successively higher in-hospital and 3-year mortalities. After multivariate regression analysis, glycaemia a...Continue Reading
